Only the Best for Your Dog(s)!

When it comes to care for your canine family member, I want you to have complete peace of mind as if you were there yourself. I will show up at the time we have arranged. I will let you know I arrived (if you wish). I will send you a photo of your baby (if you like). Solid communication and decades of experience caring for dogs--including difficult dogs--set me apart. I can help house train your puppy. I absolutely love geriatric dogs. Big dogs are great. Loud dogs are fine. Jumpy dogs are A-ok. As a volunteer in dog rescue and a dog foster home, I am accustomed to managing many combinations of dogs and behavior. Only the best care for your baby!

Hilary & Lucas were absolutely wonderful! Cherry had a great time with them and came home happy and well cared for. They were kind, attentive, and kept us updated throughout the stay. We truly appreciate their excellent care and would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you!

Hilary & Lucas were great with our dog Ollie. They made sure to address concerns and needs of our dog prior to drop off and send daily pics and updates during his stay. Would 100% book again!

We had such a wonderful experience with our dog sitter! She was incredibly communicative the entire time, even though we couldn’t communicate back much while on our cruise, which gave us so much peace of mind. We loved receiving regular updates and photos which made being away from our family fur baby so much easier. Her home and fenced-in yard are set up for dogs, creating a safe and comfortable environment where they can really thrive and have fun and freedom . You can tell she genuinely understands dogs, and her background in training really shows in how she interacts with them. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her again and recommend her to Others!

This was our second time booking with Hilary and Luke. Both times we went out of town for about a week and they were great with our dogs. My dogs got lots of time outside and plenty of pets and cuddles. They made sure to send us pictures everyday with updates. I know my dogs are safe and happy in their care. We will definitely be booking again!!

Safety, trust & environment

My home is truly set up all around the concept of caring for dogs. With an extra-tall chain link fence with extra support posts, to careful outdoor supervision, to extra tall baby gates in doorways, to all the supplies needed, we are accustomed to dog fostering, petsitting and managing dog care in creative ways. We are experienced dog fosters, used to introducing dogs to one another. We have two household dogs who are accustomed to other dogs coming in and out. In your home, the specifics will depend upon your situation and the details/requests you provide.
